electron communication device

TLDR: device that uses the spin of quantum-entangled electrons to transmit binary codes as deep-space communication I have no idea if this is viable, but thoughts on this idea? One of the constraints of long distance space travel is the delay in communications. Yet, from my very basic understanding of quantum entanglement, if you separate two electrons from the same orbit with opposing spins, they are connected no matter the distance. So if you change the spin of one, the other one will instantly change spin no matter the distance, no latency. I could be wrong and itll mess up my whole idea but... What if we have a device that is made almost like a radio handset pair that are connected via quantum-entangled electrons. The device uses spin as a binary (direction A = 1, direction B = 0), and the device somehow alters the spin of these electrons to communicate across any distance with no latency. the more electrons (in groups of 8 for bytes) the faster the binary data flow. Is this feasible? I imagine that containing these electrons in a device like that, and altering their spin so rapidly is way more difficult than i think. submitted by /u/nalgasconcafe [link] [comments]
